How much does it cost to wash my Porsche Panamera by hand at a gas station and what is the car wash course?

Dirt on the Panamera
When I drive the Panamera on the highway, I am always impressed by the comfort, the stability of the car's behavior, and many other aspects, but the only thing thatI hate it...I sometimes think, "I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do.
That's because, after driving on the highwayInsect squashed remains sticking around the front of the car, making the car very dirty.It's a problem. Especially when driving on the highway at night, it is always a big problem.
Well, this is true for all cars, not just the Panamera.
The other day, I drove the Panamera on the highway for the first time in a while, and the car was still terribly dirty.
(It's actually dirtier, but somehow it looks cleaner when you take a picture...)
So I decided to go to a local gas station to wash my car by hand.
My family has been using this place for a long time when we hand wash our car. In addition to being very close to our home.The staff was pleasant and let me wait on the couch in the room with wifi while the car was being washedThe waiter will be able to take you to a restaurant where you can enjoy a drink while you are waiting. And while you are waiting, a drink service is included.
Of course, the car wash would be cost-effective.
By the way.The Panamera has not been coated since the dealer coated it when it was delivered.Every few months, my husband washes the car himself or I take it to a gas station for a hand wash.
It has traveled about 30,000 kilometers on various roads so far and has remained in beautiful condition without any noticeable scratches. My husband is a
I don't think the coating applied by the dealer was particularly good. Since the body color is navy blue, it is easy to see how clean the car is after washing, isn't it?
He said.
Also, I've never washed my Panamera in an automatic car wash. "A no-brush car wash will work.I've seen it on the internet, but I'm still afraid to try it (-_-).
Panamera, car wash
On this day, my daughters' elementary school and kindergarten had finally started and I had a free morning schedule, so I made an appointment in advance to visit. According to the gas station's records, the Panamera was washed in April of this year, and the "Water repellency and gloss at the time of coating are restored.I had ordered the top of the line car wash course.
The staff told me that they wereThis effect will last a solid 3 months, so I don't think I'll have a problem with a regular car wash today.They said, "We're not going to do that.In addition to a regular water wash, the course includes removing dirt from wheels and other small parts of the car and vacuuming the driver's and passenger seats.selected.
The car wash time was 40-45 minutes.
While waiting, I checked my email, wrote a blog, and got a free drink of café au lait...（I'm pregnant and I drank it.), ,
In the meantime.Car wash, completed.The staff approached me and said, "We're here to help you.
After all that, forty minutes doesn't fly by. I was like, "Oh, my God.Oh, my God, already! I don't mind if it takes a little longer (laughs).I almost said, "W
I went outside to check on the Panamera, and it was as shiny and shiny as a new car!
Awesome... thank you! Just where the bugs were really sticking.The area has become slightly discolored from sunburn while it has been sitting there for a while and is difficult to remove with a normal car wash.This was the case. Indeed, upon closer inspection, there was a faint trace of dirt.
Even though the level is not visible unless you look closely and carefully, it is still not good to put time on it...I reflected on this.
By the way, I'm curious about the car wash fee.Panamera will be charged at the L size rate, which is 5832 yen(Tax included)It was.Well, it costs money, but I can have my car so clean, and I can have coffee while I wait, and I can work alone without disturbing anyone, etc., so I guess it's good to think of it that way.
I was reminded once again that when a car is clean, it is refreshing and makes you feel good.

I basically shove everything into a no-brush car wash.
If they get too dirty, I wash them by hand, but when I think about it, all eight of my cars go through a no-brush car wash once a week. They have a heavy coating, and water alone is enough to remove it. I am always impressed by the power of the no-brush car wash's dryer to blow the water off the car.
And, like Mina, I take it to this stand on days when I feel like a pain in the ass sometimes. Maybe we'll bump into each other someday!
And the Ferrari? I'm asked.
Well, only Japanese people care about such things, and in other countries, people usually put their cars in car wash machines. I don't care about that. As you can imagine, I avoid using brushes, but there is a particular car wash near Sannomiya that has the latest car wash machines with soft brushes, so I sometimes put them in there.
The Porsche is fine, but the Ferrari sometimes gets water droplets through the window, but w
Dear Mina
Good evening ^ ^
We can get a hand wash at a nearby Eneos for 2,000 yen (tax included) for an L-size car wash, and they even make the wheels shiny (wheel coating is included with purchase) ^ ^ ^
Cayenne is 3,000 yen for LL size, so I feel like I got a good deal ^ ^.
We have a penetrating coating, but water droplets remain and become dirt there.
I doubt if the water repellent type does not have such a problem.
Every time I pass a Crayon GT3 or a Nismo in a notebook, I think "no way" today ^ ^.
arriving at a moment's notice
Oooh, so that's what Eneos is!
I'll take a look next time!
I guess different gas stations offer different car wash services.
Personally, I'm glad to see a good waiting area (I'm easily caught up in that sort of thing).
>Today, every time I pass a Crayon GT3 or a Nismo in a notebook, I think "no way" ^ ^.
There are quite a few Nismo's like our house running around, so I tend to look at them too (laughs).
That's awesome that a gas station would let you wait on the couch in a room with wi-fi while they wash your car, plus they offer one drink service! I wash my car at gas stations a lot too, but I've never heard of a gas station that offers such a great service, so I'm going to look for one in my neighborhood myself. In my case, I might be banned from Lexus dealerships for saying this, but if I want to have tea and snacks at the owner's salon while waiting for my car to be washed, I sometimes wash my car at a Lexus dealership, although it is a bit more expensive than at a gas station... (sweat)
Buzzer beater! Mr.
It's hard to find a gas station with an adequate waiting area.
It happened to be in my neighborhood, and I just went with it.
>I sometimes wash my car at a Lexus dealer, although it is a bit more expensive than at a gas station...(sweat)
Oooh, it's nice to be able to wait while you get your tea cakes!
I'm going to have to take that (laughs).
